Radion blue & pro together

[alexjaundrell]

Hi, does anyone have a blue and a pro together over the same tank?
Currently about to do so but want to know what the spectrum blending looks like? Is there a massive difference and can you tell there are two ‘different’ lights over the aquarium?

I have 7 alternating, 8” over water. They blend perfectly. Can’t discern between 1 or the other.

Do you have any photos at all please?

Here’s a couple of pics.

Perfect thank you! I’m going with just the two over a 40 inch cube so wanted to make sure they’re didn’t look like two separate lights in spectrum

Hello! I have a question. First off beautiful tank. My question is that I'm getting the IM 150 EXT. for 4ft long and 3ft deep. Do you think I should go with 1 XR30 and 1XR BLUE OR 3 XR15 and do 1 blue and 2 pro? Also, are you using AB+ or custom? Thank you!

Thanks. I’d do the 3 xr15s. Gives you more control on spacing and intensity. This is assuming a mixed reef and not SPS dominant. If the latter and the 30” depth, I’d consider 3 xr30s done perpendicular to the tank. I use a modified AB+. I add a bit more white as I am not a fan of heavy blue windex tanks.

I'm planning on a mixed tank. Some SPS and decent amount of LPS and softies. So would you go 2 Blue and 1 pro or 2 pro and 1 blue? I also am not a huge fan of a windex tank. But a tad bit on the bluer side

Or maybe even 4 XR15 and 2 of both?

Go 2 pro and 1 blue. Put the blue in the middle.

I’d start with 3 and see how that goes. Can always add one down the road.

I have a 4' 120 with three XR15's. Two G5 Blues on the outside with a Pro in the center.

Anyway you can post a picture of your tank? I'm curious how the color blending is
